Finding Area with Fractions

The video tutorial explores the use of fractions to calculate areas in interior design projects. It begins with a problem involving calculating the number of tiles needed for a bathroom floor, considering both whole and partial tiles. The tutorial then demonstrates how to use fractions to find the area, converting mixed numbers to improper fractions. Alternative methods are explored, and the area model is applied to solve a backyard problem. Finally, two garden options are compared using fractions, illustrating the commutative property of multiplication.
